EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Matteo Colombo, we witness the grandeur of the Changing of the Guards ceremony in Syntagma Square, Athens, Greece. The vibrant city comes alive as locals and tourists gather to witness this age-old tradition steeped in Greek culture and history. The image showcases a group of soldiers dressed in their traditional costumes, standing tall with rifles held firmly at their sides. Their stoic expressions and precise movements reflect the utmost dedication and discipline they possess as guardians of Parliament. As sunlight bathes the square, it illuminates not only the soldiers but also the rich heritage that surrounds them. The architecture of Athens' capital city serves as a stunning backdrop to this ceremonial event, reminding us of its significance within Western Europe. This photograph transports us into a world where time seems to stand still; where ancient traditions seamlessly blend with modern life. It invites us to immerse ourselves in Greek culture and experience firsthand how customs are preserved through generations. Matteo Colombo's lens captures not just an ordinary parade but rather a moment frozen in time - one that encapsulates both pride for tradition and reverence for history. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene, we can't help but be awestruck by the sheer beauty and authenticity displayed before our eyes.
